Certification Schemes

APHC Certification Ltd. is accredited by UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) to operate a number of Government developed and authorised plumbing and heating certification schemes including:

Competent Persons Scheme: Enables businesses to self-certify that their work complies with building regulations in England & Wales without the need to notify Building Control or incur costly local authority inspection fees.

Microgeneration Certification Scheme: Provides certification for the compliant installation of renewable technologies which consumers require to receive government incentives such as the Boiler Upgrade Scheme.

To be part of one or all of the schemes, your company must meet the minimum operating criteria laid down for each of the schemes and APHC will assess each company to make sure the required standards are met. The two part approval process is made up of a desk based assessment of company procedures and on-site assessments of work carried out.

Companies can join one or all of the schemes under one application. This is a streamlined and cost effective process, allowing installers to pick and choose which work area(s) they wish to be approved against, subject to meeting the individual requirements under each of the schemes.
